Internship Opportunities
Interns are major contributors to the content produced for on-air and online audiences
at WYPR. We provide opportunities to learn everything from radio production and web
journalism to digital media, event planning, non-profit management, and customer service.
We expect interns to conduct themselves professionally and to adhere to the highest
journalistic standards of objectivity, fairness, and integrity. While there is no
pay available, hours are flexible and the experience has proven invaluable to past
interns. Most work would be done at the WYPR studios in Charles Village.Typical duties
include research, transcription, script writing, photography, editorial meeting attendance,
archive maintenance, audio & video editing, answering phones and emails, analyzing
report, and help in the mail room. Opportunities exist in the following departments:
Qualifications:
This is a great opportunity for someone who is looking to break into politics and is a fantastic writer: You get an insight into how a Congressional office operates, see the legislative process in action (we’re on Appropriations, so you get to see how the government is funded-or how it doesn’t get funded!), opportunities to attend meetings and events with staff, and much more.
We are looking for someone who has Tuesday and Thursday mornings free, but we will
work with someone’s schedule if we do decide to bring them on. The office is just
up the road from the University, so the commute isn’t too hard (The TigerRide Shuttle
has a Timonium rout that even drops off near our office).
Interested students can reach out directly to kevin.mcguire@mail.house.gov or 443-624-9957.
